It was neither conventional nor expected, but give credit to coach Dino Babers and the Syracuse Orange football team for pulling off a much-needed 28-13 win over Pittsburgh in Yankee Stadium this past weekend.
There was a lot to like — “Thunder Dan” Villari put on his best Sean Tucker impression and the defense made some momentum-altering plays, all while the Sickos Committee did nothing but sit back and enjoy the madness. Best of all: the Duke’s Mayo Bowl O’Meter is finally optimistic again.
Yes, it took over 50 days, but the Bowl O’Meter is back in the spotlight yet again and in full twang force.
